Customer Review
“Brilliant dive trip, led by wonderful guides, very comfortable boat and great food! The sunset night dive with the large number of Nurse and other sharks. Sting Ray City was amazing, as was the Manta Ray dive. Personally, i would have liked to have had the option for more night dives. The boat was really spacious and very clean, the food plentiful and varied, the crew were very friendly and helpful. Ali and Coco were really patient and great dive guides. Boat crew very helpful with equipment when needed. Wonderful trip!” Recommended for: The marine life, the crew and the food, especially the maldivian dishes!

“14 fabulous days spent aboard the Nautilus. The dives were amazing, thanks to Hampek and Ziad (dive guides), it was a pleasure to dive with you. The whale shark we saw at the end of the dive is an exceptional memory… We also saw manta rays, eagle rays, gray or white tip sharks, napoleons, dolphins, but also nudibranchs, pipefishes, beautiful corals… 38 dives in total, including 2 at night. The Dhoni staff was very kind to help us outfit us. The room was spacious and clean, the bed comfortable. The food was delicious: eggs cooked every morning according to our preferences, typical and varied food. The service was impeccable. Thanks to Mister B. for his cocktails. I highly recommend this diving cruise !!! Marion et Kevin.” Recommended for: Wild life (whale shark, manta rays…). Beautiful boat. Amazing crew.
